  • Fallin', dreamin', talkin' in your sleep
    I know you want to cry all night, all night
    Plottin', schemin', finding
    Reason to defend all of your violent nights
    Promise me you will see

    Don't you grow up in a hurry, your mom'll be worried, aw
    It was all part of the story, even the scary nights
    Thank you for all of the glory, you will be remembered, aw
    Thank you to all of the heroes of the night (night, night)
    They gotta repeat the colors, the lie is wearin' off
    Reality is upon us, colors drippin' off
    Colors drippin' off

    Niggas is savage, niggas is monsters
    Niggas is pimps, niggas is players
    'Til niggas have daughters, now they precautious
    Father forgive me, I'm scared of the karma
    'Cause now I see women as somethin' to nurture
    Not somethin' to conquer
    I hope she like Nicki, I'll make her a monster
    Not havin' menages
    I'm just being silly
    I answered the door, like Will Smith and Martin
    Nigga do we have a problem?
    Matter of fact Marlin, this ain't Meet the Fockers
    I'll beat his ass, pray I beat the charges
    No daddy don't play, not when it come to they daughters
    Don't do no yoga, don't do pilates
    Just play piano and stick to karate
    I pray your body's draped more like mine and not like your mommy's
    Just bein' salty, but niggas is nuts
    And I am a nigga, I know what they want
    I pray that you don't get it all at once
    Curves under your dress, I know it's pervs all on the 'net
    All in the comments, you wanna vomit
    That's your baby, you love her to death
    Now she cuttin' class and hangin' with friends
    You break a glass and say it again
    She can't comprehend the danger she's in
    If you whoop her ass, she move in with him
    Then he whoop her ass, you go through it again
    But how you the devil rebukin' the sin?
    Let's pray we can put this behind us
    I swear that these times is the wildest
    She got the scars, they serve as reminders
    Blood still on her pajamas, but yesterday is dead, yeah
    Moment of silence
    Next she'll be off to college
    And then at the altar
    'Cause she know that niggas is savage
    Niggas is monsters
    Niggas is pimps, niggas is players
    'Til niggas have daughters
    Niggas is pimps, niggas is players
    'Til niggas have daughters

    Don't you grow up in a hurry, your mom'll be worried, aw
    It was all part of the story, even the scary nights
    Thank you for all of the glory, you will be remembered, aw
    Thank you to all of the heroes of the night (night, night)
    They gotta repeat the colors, the light is wearin' off
    Reality is upon us, colors drippin' off
    Colors drippin' off

    I'm sayin' it like
    I want a daughter like Nicki
    Aww man, I promise
    I'ma turn her to a monster, but no menagés
    I don't know how you saying it, but let 'em hear this Writer/s: Danielle Balbuena, Irving Domingo Lorenzo, Jordan Thorpe, Kanye Omari West, Kevin Parker, Malik Yusef El Shaba Jones, Mike Dean, Seven Marcus Aurelius, Tyrone Griffin
